Real good looking turtles you have there.#22 is mine. Couple of podocnemis unifilis (Amazon spotted turtle) basking on a piece of driftwood.

Thank you Yvonne for helping Baby Runt make it into this year's calendar. I don't know how the photo made it upside down, but I'm sure glad someone fixed it! Thank you all.
He is a she. I thank all for getting her pic straight. I think she was posing for the pic. She's a ham, for sure.I wondered who that pretty sulcata belonged to. I'm glad Josh was able to get it turned around and the re-vote did him some good. He deserves a spot!
How doI use PayPal? I have an account, but when it asks for "pay for goods and services," it asks for an email, phone, or name. What do I use? Am I even doing this right? That's why I hate using PayPal.Congratulations again to all the winners!
The calendar is now available to order!!

Never mind. I figured it out. I had to use Josh's email, duh...H

I'm so happy to see that #28 got a spot on the calendar. It was slow going at first, with no one voting for the picture when it was upside down. But it turned around nicely when the picture orientation was fixed.
We're going to have a very nice calendar this year. I wish we could put the username and species on each picture before it goes to print, but I've been told it's too difficult a task to do.
But all of us still want to know which picture belongs to who, so please let us know which picture is yours. I'll start:
Picture #26 is me and SO (16 year old male Aldabran tortoise)
It would take me less than 15 minutes to add text to the images if you had access to the full-sized files if you really want to do it.
I'm always surprised by how unstreamlined this contest can be. I know there are dozens of members with the graphic skills to create text overlays. Maybe we should look into it for next year. - I bet people would love to have the descriptions available!We really want to do it, however, the full sized photos are in Josh's hands. We don't have access to them.

I don't think we have info yet on #27, 3, 9, 12, 13, 15, 16, 20, 21, 25 and 27. I'm going to include a piece of paper with the I.D.s with each calendar order, so I'd really like to put the name with the picture.
This was my 4-year-old's favorite photo! Too cool!Oh sorry, my bad. Anyways, I am the proud owner of the little female tort in #12. She's a Russian tortoise, she's about five years old (though I've only had her a year). Her name is Ginger.
Just for the record, I'm very happy with August.My sister was pretty upset the year she won because her picture wasn't on the cover. Personally, I would much rather have a month. The cover gets turned over immediately, while a month stays in the forefront for at least 30 days!
I'm thinking next year we'll limit pictures to no humans. I'm not real fond of having a picture of me hanging on someone's wall for a whole month. Wish I had thought of that sooner.
I've said exactly the same about the cover, wouldn't want it myself. ('cept it's at least 28 days)My sister was pretty upset the year she won because her picture wasn't on the cover.
